What is Epilepsy?

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder that causes recurrent seizures due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Seizures can vary widely in type and severity, from brief lapses in awareness to full-body convulsions. Common causes of epilepsy include:

• • Genetic Factors: Inherited conditions that affect brain function.
  • Brain Injuries: Trauma, stroke, or infections that damage the brain.
  • Developmental Disorders: Conditions like autism or neurofibromatosis.

While epilepsy cannot always be cured, it can often be effectively managed with the right treatment plan.
